I. PROVIDING COWS WITH SALT
One of Things Easily Forgotten Whila
Animals Ara on Pasture in
Bummer Months.
One of the things so easily forgotten
In the summer months while the cews
are on pasture Is to provide them
regularly with salt 'The easy way
not to forget It is to place rock salt
where they can get at every day,
cither In the stall while they are be
ing milked or In a trough or box In the
pasture where they can lick It when
ever they have tho desire to.
Studies made at the Wisconsin sta
tion by Professors Bnbcock anil Cur
lylo showed that cows actually re
quire salt to thrive properly, the
nmount required depending upon the
character of the feed which they re
ceive.
PLAN TO KEEP CREAM SWEET
j.Cool Immediately After Skimming and
Before Mixing With Older Cream
—Keep In Cold Water.
I Set the separator to skim nearly
i6O per cent In hot weather. Cool the
| cream at onco after skimming, and
cool It before mixing with older croum.
Stir It well to prevent the forming of
lumps or masses. Keep It In cold wa
ter, stir with metal ladle, and have
palls, cans, separator parts nnd all
| utensils nnd surroundings clean and
sweet.
EXPENSE OF SAVING CALVES
Cost Just as Much to Raise Poor Ani
mal as a Good One—Dlsposo of
Culls Early In Life.
Calf conservation looks like a good
thing to many of the wiseacres, says
Iho Farmer's Guide, but Is It? Can
jtho farmer afford to save the measly
little specimens of bovlnlty thnt occa
slonnlly appear In the host herds?
There nre nlwnys some culls thnt can
not be turned to good account either
;us breeders or for beef. If every calf
'dropped were n high-class Individual
that could be rnlsed nnd fed econom
ically, the situation might be different.
It costs Just as much and sometimes
more to raise a poor calf ns a good
one, and when you havo It raised what
Is It good for? Let tho conservation
ist go out into the open country nnd
visit n number of fnrms where he can
got next to tho actual conditions; then
let him study up on tho economy of
beef production and he may chango
his mind. Most certainly It Is wise
to save the good cnlvos, the kind thnt
can be raised Into profitable breeders,
milk or beef producers, but the other
kind had better be disposed of early
lu life before they hove time to be
come on expense.
SANITATION POINTS
' 1. Uuve tho herd examined
at least once u year by a com
petent veterinarian. Promptly
remove animals suspected of be
ing In bad hculth. Never add
nn animal to the herd until cer
tain It Is free from disease, fiar
tlcularly tuberculosis.
2. Nover allow n cow to bo
excited by fast driving, nbuso
or unnecessary disturbance.
8. Clean tho entire body of
tho cow dally. Hair In tho re
gion of tho udder should bo kept
short by clipping.
4. Do not allow strong-flavor
ed food, like cabbage or turnips,
to bo eaten except Immediately
after milking. Changes In feed
should be made gradually.
5. Provide fresh, pure drink
ing water In abundance.

The neverendlng desire for some- \
thing "new" which Is a characteristic
of the American people,, has Its effect j
on architecture by bringing Into use
In this country the distinguishing char
acteristics of nearly every successful
type of architecture which has ever
been used In any part of the world/
One of the attractive architectural 1
adaptations which American architects
have brought nbout Is modeled nfter
the Swiss chnlet. The Swiss architec
ture Is usually associated with rugged j
landscape. There are various places j
in the United States where tho sur- j
rounillngs nre suitable for the ndapta- ■
tlon of this style of architecture. Jinny
country estates In localities the
topography Is characterized by abrupt
chunges In elevation with exposed rock |
surfaces, where tho growth of trees
and other natural features are agree- ,
üble, have been planned after the :
Swiss style to produce beautiful re- j
suits. .The honso very often Is built I
on the very edge of an abrupt cliff nnd
tho effect Is all the more beautiful If j
nature has provided a clear stream I
which winds through the estate and ■
pusses at the base of this cliff.
Occasionally a beauty spot of this
type Is found within the boundaries of ■

Jagged break in the surfuce of the

dred yards from the mouth of the
creek and extending roughly along Its
course until It ts Anally smoothed out
toward the north and west. For about
three hundred feet In Its course the
creek flows along at the bnse of the
cliff, which Is perhaps 00 feet high at
this point. The land adjacent to this
cliff, on either side of tho creek, very
fortunately camo Into the hnnds of n
, man who haa devoted bis entire life to

bility of working nut a beautiful plan
following the Swiss style.
He built his hoino closely to Ibi
SwU.i model and plu((d It almost on
tfie edge of the cliff. It Is a decidedly

| are Intended to add nn atmosphere of
j the rustic In the same way that the
j balcony Is effectively used,
j A novel method of supporting the
roof overhanging the gables consists
j of the only use of exposed timbers
which is found In the design. The prin
cipal rafters are supported by beams
extending out from the wall of the
house. Near the center of these beams
a timber is extended parallel to the
j wall of the house, the beams resting
on this timber which is in turn sup
ported by a second set of beams, not
no long as those which support the raf
, tors. The timber Is not as long as the
rrifters, but It Is stopped a short dls
| tance beyond the outer beam toward
' the top and bottom of the roof, the
timber ends being cut with a simple
ornamental'design.
The entrance to tho house Is on the
| side and Is through a cozy little porch
adjoining the reception hall. The re
, ceptlon hall opens Into the dining room
j on one side through double doors and
| on the other side through a cased
I opening Into the living room. The llv

j the house and Is 20 feet by 13 feet In
I size. In one enf of It Is a brick flre
] place flanked with two windows which

This room Is well lighted by the two
■ windows mentioned and a broad triple

large living porch which will be es
l peclally appreciated In the summer.
This porch Is Intended to be fitted

SAFETY FACTOR IN CONCRETE
| Aid Traveler at Night to Keep Road
and Glaring Reflections of Sur
face Are Miaalng.
Any liard road la good, any perma
nent type—concrete, brick, nsphaltuni
—ls better. Each Individual advocate
has his own favorable argument, so
the concrete man says, with n good
deal of truth, that "not only do con
crete roads harmonize with natural
surroundings, and blend with objects
In the landscape, but their
surfaces aid the traveler at night to
keep to the road. Since the top of n
concrete pavement presents' a sandy
nnd gritty surface, there are no glar
ing reflections of sunlight nor mirror
like effects, as are found with many
j other types of surfaces when worn
| smooth or when wet.
"Dark-colored roads, merging into
! the grass and foliage at the roadside
at night, are indistinct, and there Is a
! likelihood of accidents at curves,
' whereas the light-colored surface Is
1 distinct from the sides of the road.
' Under motor traffic the concrete road
-1 way offers an element of safety, as no
1 matter how dark the night the clean,
1 firm, light, nonskld surface is clearly
• defined to view."
ROAD DRAG MADE EFFECTIVE
Directions Given for Constructing Im
plement Weighing About 200
Pounds for Dirt Road.
, In response to a query as to the
construction of a cheap, but effective
, road drag the following directions are
given: v
Take two planks each ten feet long,
two Inches thick nnd twelve Inches
wide, rounding both ends of one edge
In a manner similar to the run
ners In a sled. The two planks are
then placed on edge and connected on
the top by two planks six feet long,
thus mnklng a sled ten feet long and
six feet wide.
The two runners are again connect
ed by two planks two inches thick nnd
twelve inches wide. These planks are
set on edge, the same as the runners,
and at an nngle of about 45 degrees to
the runners, as follows:
On the right side of the drag start
the diagonal plank 12 Inches, back of
the front, and connect with the op
posite runner (which will be the left
side), 5 feet back of the front runner;
then have another plank of the same
v
Efficient Road Drag.
dimensions exactly 4 feet back of the
front diagonal plank. Be sure to make
an opening In the runners on the left
side, immediately in front of each
diagonal plank, the opening to be about
5 inches high and 24 inches long. In
order to make the drag solid and well
braced rWTa 2 by 12 inch plank diag
onally across the top, opposite the
planks which serve as a drag.
Have an Iron shoe about one-quarter
inch thick and 8 Inches wide -on the
front of the two dragging planks, the
bottom of the iron *hoe to be one-half
inch below the runner on the right
side and exactly even with the runner
on the left side.
Large holes should be bored in
front ends of the runners In which
to attach the rope or chain to pull the
drag. It Is well to hitch the horses as
close as possible. The total weight of
the drag, under these specifications, is
about 200 pounds and an ordinary team
can pull It on a dirt road, with a heavy
man on, with less effort than any other .
drag of the same dimensions on the
market and It will be found that this
road leveler will do far better work
than a split-log or metal drag.

quantities of vegetable food require
salt Unless cows receive plenty of
salt they will cease to thrive, and will
therefore decrease in milk flow. Some
dairymen mix the salt with the feed,

Her ■ Canteen—The Gayest,
Brightest Little Room
1 One Ever Saw.
. NEVER SO PROUD OF
ANYTHING IN ALL HER LIFE
l ——
1 Just what a Red Cross canteen Is,
how It is outfitted, nnd the hundred
1 problems the American women have
1 to meet in feeding the French, Eng
llsh and American soldiers Is well
 shown In this letter from an American
Bed Cross worker:
t We have really a wonderful place.
, It was given to us so rough and plain
! and ugly. I had a coat of plaster put
on the wails, painted a bright blue
| wainscot three feet high with a aten
| ell of flowers of red, white and blue
i above, white walla and catling, doors
i 1 and windows outlined with light green,
and stencils of bright colors between
I the windows of trumpets, and over
i the five doors delicious little paintings
I by Miss Klrkpatrick and Miss Beckett
of soldiers and canteeners in the most
clever and attractive way.
Brightest Little Room.
II At the end of the room we have two
| girls, one American and one French,
' holding French and American flags.
We have red and white oilcloth on the
tables, red glass carafes and red tur
j key window curtains, and always flow
] ers on the counters. It is the gayest,
brightest little room you ever saw.
However, It only holds about 120 men
' seated at the tables and it Is to be
used as a recreation room and even
movies. Our big room Is to have a
huge kitchen and seats for 1,000 men
or over, and will open right on to the
platform. It Is to be decorated by an
artist from the Beaux Art, as Miss
Beckett has gone and Miss Klrkpat
rick Is too busy.
It will really be a splendid big place
nnd we can work In comfort Instead
put In straits as we are now
Into feed so many men with only six
gns burners In a long row. We make
the coffee, soup, cocoa, and ragout or
sometimes regular Irish stew on our
stoves and the roasts are cooked for
us gratuitously at the bakers'. All
food except coffee, meat, cocoa, and
sugar Is cheap down here. It is the
garden district of France. All the men
are so pleased and grateful and we
get such post cards and thanks. We
have- stewed apples, stewed dates and
figs for deserts and I tell you It keeps
us hopping to keep things going.
Sometimes we run out of meat and
then we fry eggs for them and they
love them. The dormitories are won
derful. I never was so proud of any
thing before. Two Hundred canvas
stretchers for beds. We never used
them before, but we can keep them
clean and put them outside If there
is any vermin.
Model of Cleanliness.
We have a splendid fumigating plant
and an incinerator, and the place is a
model of cleanliness. All the men
take off their wet and dirty boots. We
have good felt slippers for them, two
woolen blankets for each bed/ two big
stoves and an orderly that" wakes
them for their trains, good shower
baths and wash rooms and altogether,
when the big room Is finished, it will
be a model of everything It should be,
particularly as our last touch Is a bar
ber. Last year the men slept fn the
road. We have adopted the Auberge
sabots as tho only sensible footwear
as the roads and our floors are always
wet.
BUTTER PRODUCED ON FARMS
Amount la Continually Decreasing Ac
cording to Inveetlgatlon Made
In Wleconsln.
An Investigation made in Wisconsin
shows that the amoifnt of butter pro
duced la the farm dairy la continually
decreasing and what Is produced Is
generally sold direct to the consumer.
The market butter Is madp in the 835
creameries of the atate, 46 per cent of
which are owned co-operatively by the
farmers. An Important feature Is that
I the co-operative creameries are the
| most successful. They pay the farmer
more for his butter fat, pay the but
termaker higher wages, and sell the
product for a higher price.
! It costs 1.06 cents per pound of but
terfat to get the cream to the cream
ery and 2.33 centa ta make a pound of
butter. The shipping charges vary
from 0.25 to 1.26 cents per pound, de
luding upon the distance from the
market The Investigation brought out
ithe interesting fact that for every
pound of butter sold to the consumer
the farmer received two-thirds of the
money and the retailer one-tenth.
